Comments on: The Liberation of Music http://eleetmusic.com/?p=1370 Direction in music, marketing and business Sat, 04 Sep 2010 15:03:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Dave Lopez http://eleetmusic.com/?p=1370&cpage=1#comment-1129 Dave Lopez Thu, 20 Aug 2009 19:29:21 +0000 http://eleetmusic.com/?p=1370#comment-1129 I couldn't agree more Kevin. When we were young children and we heard and fell in love with music the first thing that didn't pop into our heads was "How can I make a million dollars doing music as a business?" What did pop into our heads, and our souls, was how wonderful music made us feel. That's FEEL. As in with your heart, not your wallet. For far too long the major labels confused artists into thinking that making music was mainly about making money. But now that the paradigm is changing and music is free, at least for the moment, let's absorb as much as we can and contribute financially where we'd like. I'm not saying that we should always give it away. Just be more creative in how to generate revenue with your music. You are no longer locked into a labels business model and that's a good thing. You are now in charge of your own destiny. As Kevin said in his post "Enjoy this time in music biz history, because it won’t last very long." -dave lopez Mixing and Mastering Specialist Cr@zyEye Music Services http://www.crazyeye.com http://www.marketingmusiconline.net I couldn’t agree more Kevin.
